I am not sure if this is possible, but I am trying to find a way to
make a custom package with a set of (edited) config files and security
changes. However since these config files belong to other packages (ssh,
xinetd, selinux, etc) I get conflicts. I can force it, but then
upgrading the package becomes another hassle.
I'm wondering if there is some macro I am missing that will let me
install my config but not cause the conflicts for the original package
on update. I would not mind if I even had to reinstall my custom
package. Does anyone know of any trick to accomplish this?
I don't know if this will suite your tastes or not, but what I do is deliver the config
files to some alternate location and then in the %post scriptlet overwrite the originals with these files. Seems to work fine, and even plays well the rpm transactional rollback feature.
Cheers...james
